Re: Free blowing

If you find it easy to play in terms of breath resistance, then that's half the battle won. And that means you can concentrate on the technical side of playing a lot more - once the air is going through unhindered, you're less likely to worry, and will breeze through things much easier.

I remember finishing a cocobolo oboe and when I play tested it, it was as if it played itself. I then gave it to the director to try and he said exactly the same thing in that it's free blowing.
